Raul was working on some Solving Systems of Equations problems. When he was checking his solutions, he found two problems with i

ncorrect solutions. Find the errors Raul made on the following two problems. Explain what he did wrong for both of these problems and give the correct answers.
Problem 1:

Solve by substitution
4x + 7y = 1
y = -2x-7

4x + 7(-2x-7) = 1
4x-14x-7 = 1
-10x-7 = 1
-10x = 8
x = 8-10
x = -45
y = -2(-45) -7
y = 85-7
y = 85-355
y = -275

(-45,-275)
Problem 2:

Solve by elimination
5x-2y = -2
4x-3y = 4

-15x + 6y = 6 (multiplied first eq by -3)
+ 8x-6y = 4 (multiplied second eq by 2)
------------------
-7x = 10
x = -107

5(-107)-2y = -2
-507-2y = -2
-2y = -147+507
-2y = 367
y = -187

(-107, -187)

guapka [62]
Time taken for work out was 1/4 hours
let the time taken to walk be x
time spent for jogging will be (1/4-x)

distance=speed×time

distance walked will be:
3.1x miles

distance jogged will be:
5.2(1/4-x) miles

Total distance:
3.1x+5.2(1/4-x)=1.09

solving for x we get
3.1x-5.2x+1.3=1.09
2.1x=0.21
x=0.1
Thus time spent on waling was o.1 hours
time spent on jogging was 0.25-0.1=0.15 hours

Which equation have no real solution?
Ad libitum [116K]

To find out which equation has no real solutions, we need to calculate the discriminant for each of these given equations.

For calculating the discriminant, we need to first compare these equations with the general formula which is <u>ax²+bx+c.</u>

So, let's get started.

1) x² + 4x + 16 = 0

a=1, b=4, c=16

D = b²-4ac

= (4)² - 4(1)(16)

= 16-64

= -48

√D = √-48

2) 4x² + 4x - 24 = 0

a=4, b=4, c=-24

D = b²-4ac

= (4)² - 4(4)(-24)

= 16 - 16(-24)

= 16 + 384

= 400

√D = √400 = +20 or -20

3) 5x² + 3x - 1 = 0

a=5, b=3, c=-1

D = b²-4ac

= (3)² - 4(5)(-1)

= 9 + 20

= 29

√D = √29

4) 2x² - 4x + 4 = 0

a=2, b=-4, c=4

D = b²-4ac

= (-4)² - 4(2)(4)

= 16 - 32

= -16

√D = √-16

Now from all these above calculations, we can see that discriminant was negative in first equation and in last equation.

If D<0 then roots does not exist, as the square root can not contain a negative value or the equation does not have any real solutions.

Roots in such case can be calculated but those roots are known as imaginary roots, which is a higher concept.

So Final answer is,

Equation 1 => x² + 4x + 16 = 0

and

Equation 4 => 2x² - 4x + 4 = 0

has no real solutions.

an economic research commission claimed that among the 500 stores there are 308 dealing with european companies, 266 dealing wit
Rudiy27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S be the set of all the stores in the sample, A be the set of stores dealing with Asian companies and E but the set of stores dealing with European companies

i. The set of stores that deal with European or Asian companies is A ∪ E. The inclusion-exclusion principle states that |A ∪ E| = |A| + |E| - |A ∩ E| = 266 + 308 - 103 = 471. So P(A ∪ E) = 471/500 = 0.942

ii. E' = S - E. |S-E| = 500 - 308 = 192. So P(E') = 192/500 = 0.384

iii. |A - E| = |A| - |A ∩ E| = 266 - 103 = 163. So P(A - E) = 163/500 = 0.326

iv. Stores that do not deal with only one type of company, must deal with both Asian and European companies. We are given that |A ∩ E| = 103. So P(A ∩ E) = 103/500 = 0.206

Easy, right?

Then mark as brainlist!
